Impressive performance by Andy Murray who dispatched Borna Coric 6-1 6-2 in only 58 minutes. The surface suits Andy’s game really well, and the young Croatian spent the match running from left to right to left again and again. It is a real pleasure to see Murray play like that.
In his interview on court Murray said his biggest goal is obviously to win the Davis Cup in 3 weeks, but he’d like to play well here this year because he’s never done well at the BNP Paribas Masters in the past.
His opponent in the third round tomorrow: David Goffin.
A solid 6-2 7-5 win over Leonardo Mayer for the best-ranked French player. Gasquet, who’s been really playing well lately, will face Kei Nishikori in the third round tomorrow, an interesting opposition of styles!
After the first few points I thought “Ok, this match will be over in an hour.” Bellucci dropped his serve early in the match, but he kept fighting and even broke back Djokovic’s serve. Despite unusual unforced errors, Djokovic dictated the game from the baseline, and battled past the 40th-ranked Brazilian 7-5 6-3.
Rafaael Nadal teamed up with veteran Leander Paes to play doubles in Bercy this week. They lost in straight to Dominic Inglot and Robert Lindstedt in the first round. Rafa seemed to have trouble finding his rythm and missed lots of volleys. He’ll play his second round singles match against Lukas Rosol tomorrow.
